[MOC] 1948 COE - Car hauler truck

[Sérgio]

I wanted to make an old custom truck car hauler based on 1948 COE, my model isn't a replica of any particular truck, I searched some and then I make this one based on several different trucks I saw.

it's 9wide'sh and can fit any Speed Champions 8 wild car.

The cabin was a huge challenge, to many angles in such a small space, yes it is fragile, but it wasn't built to be played.

This is my last "car" I will close shop for a while and focus on other projects.

Thank you so much, I'm really glad when something I did with love inspires another person!

Your car hauling truck is fitting for the collection of vehicles you've built. Every on looks perfect on the back of this truck. Great work.

This is unbelievably good. Does it actually have steering?

Thanks, they turn but not the "normal way" I have to turn each wheel individually :)
